'Defining Abstraction' at Selby Galleries

"Defining Abstraction," a group exhibition featuring work by more than 30 contemporary artists, will be on display July 10-Aug. 7 at Selby Gallery I and II on the campus of Ringling College of Art and Design.

Curator Mark Ormond chose artists who work in a variety of media, including painting, sculpture and printmaking.

"What is Abstraction? Perhaps we all think we know what it is, we know we can define it or we know it when we see it," said Ormond in a statement. "This exhibition is designed to pose as many questions as it answers. It will provide the viewer examples of works of art where the artists have pondered or wrestled with the idea of abstraction."
